A Welcome from our local Pastor, The Very Reverend Alberto Avella Martinez: Welcome to the Catholic Community of the western portion of Cibola County in the Diocese of Gallup. We are the four Parishes of St. Teresa of Avila in Grants, St. Vivian in Milan, San Rafael in the Village of San Rafael and San Mateo in the Village of San Mateo. We share a Catholic Heritage here in the shadow of Mt.Taylor that is 400 years old. We embrace all peoples and cultures and invite them to share in the Eucharistic Banquet together with our Bishop, Pastor, Priests, Deacons, Lay Ministers and all the Baptized as we build the Kingdom of God in the communities of Grants, Milan, San Rafael and San Mateo.

Remember our motto: Four Parishes - For God - For Each Other.

"Fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my victorious right hand". Isaiah 41:10
